Experts have hailed the launch of Uganda’s solar-powered charging station for electric bodas (E-Bodas) and electric vehicles (EVs) as a game-changer for Uganda’s sustainable energy solutions.

Located at the Nekosero Shopping and Lifestyle Complex in Kampala, the 40 kWp solar photovoltaic (PV) system powers the complex while supporting electric vehicle charging stations and a dedicated charging station for E-Bodas. This innovative project, unveiled by enPower.life in collaboration with Yujo Izakaya, taps into Uganda’s vast solar potential.

German Ambassador to Uganda, Matthias Schauer, emphasized Uganda’s leadership in renewable energy in Africa. “Uganda is increasingly tapping into its solar energy, and I’m pleased that Germany is contributing significantly to this development.”

Professor Robinah Nanyunja, Executive Director of the Uganda Solar Energy Association (USEA), highlighted the project’s transformative potential. “This project reshapes Uganda’s renewable energy landscape, promoting gender inclusion in the transport sector.”

The initiative empowers women to overcome operational barriers and enter the transport industry. Electric bodas provide women with user-friendly transportation solutions, enabling them to earn substantial income and participate in economic activities.

Women on Wheels, a Kampala-based organization, trains women to become boda drivers. Sandra Graf, a representative from Wilhelm Buchner University, noted the profound social and economic impact of combining e-mobility with gender equality.

Hanif Rehemtulla, CEO of Yujo Izakaya, expressed enthusiasm about the project’s future impact. “Our collaboration with enPower.life reduces strain on the local grid and lowers energy costs, contributing to sustainability goals.”

Uganda’s abundant solar resources position the country as a leader in renewable energy in Africa. The collaboration between Germany and Uganda in renewable energy is supported by the German Energy Agency (DENA).

EnPower.life, a German company, brings sustainable solar solutions to Ugandan businesses. The company’s innovative business models reduce initial investment costs, making solar energy accessible and affordable.
